Portfolio links in seconds

Share your portfolio as one clean link

Designers, photographers, writers, developers, and job seekers: turn an HTML page, an image, or a PDF portfolio into a single link you can drop in an application form, an Instagram bio, an email signature, or a cold DM. It opens straight in the browser on any phone or laptop — nobody has to download a file or dig through an attachment to see your work.

How to share your portfolio as a link

  1. 1

    Pick the file that shows your work best

    Export your portfolio as a single PDF (great for a case-study deck or a designer's book), a high-resolution image (one strong piece or a contact-sheet collage), or a self-contained HTML page if you hand-built one. Aim for a tight edit — 6 to 12 of your strongest pieces beats a sprawling archive that makes a hiring manager scroll.

  2. 2

    Upload it and get your link

    Drop the file on the upload card and you get a public link like linkinseconds.com/p/your-name. No account is needed to make your first link (PDF, image, or video up to 10 MB); sign in free with Google to keep it and add a second. On Pro you can set the custom name so the URL reads like your actual name instead of random characters.

  3. 3

    Test it on a phone before you send it

    Open your own link on your phone. Check that fonts are readable, images aren't cut off, and a PDF isn't so wide it forces sideways scrolling. This is the exact view a recruiter or client gets — catching a broken layout here saves you from a bad first impression on the one link that matters.

  4. 4

    Put the link everywhere people find you

    Paste it into the 'portfolio' or 'website' field on job applications, your LinkedIn intro, your email signature, your Instagram or Behance bio, and the download the QR code to print on a business card or a booth sign. One link means you only ever update one place.

PDF portfolios and case-study decks

A PDF is the safest format for a portfolio you send to hiring managers: it looks identical on every machine and won't reflow like a web page can. Export at a sensible resolution (large enough that mockups are crisp, small enough to stay under your plan's size limit), keep it to a landscape layout if it's a deck, and lead with your two strongest projects — many reviewers only open the first couple of pages. Your link shows the PDF in a clean in-browser viewer with page navigation, so nobody has to download anything to flip through your work. For a heavier book with lots of full-bleed imagery, watch the file size and compress images before exporting.

Image portfolios for photographers and illustrators

If your work is visual, sometimes the best portfolio is a single beautiful image — a hero shot, a stitched contact sheet, or a poster-style layout of your range. Upload a PNG or JPG and the link opens to the full image, scaled to fit whatever screen it lands on, with no compression from a chat app in the way. This is ideal for a quick 'here's my style' reply in a DM or an email, or a QR code on a print at a gallery or market stall. For a fuller set, a multi-page PDF or a bundled bucket keeps everything under one link instead of dumping ten separate files on someone.

HTML portfolios you built yourself

Built your own portfolio page with HTML, CSS, and a bit of JavaScript? Upload the single self-contained .html file and it renders live behind your link — animations, custom fonts, and layout intact — inside a sandboxed frame, so it's a genuine web page and not a flat screenshot. This is the fastest way for a front-end developer or design-engineer to show craft without buying a domain or setting up hosting. Keep everything in one file (inline your CSS and JS, or reference assets by full URL) since only that one page is uploaded; anything that points at a missing local file won't load.

Looks right on the phone in a recruiter's hand

Most portfolio links are opened on a phone — during a commute, between meetings, in the ten seconds before someone decides whether to reply. Your link opens directly in whatever browser the viewer already has, with nothing to install and no 'download to view' friction that makes people bounce. That said, the browser shows your file as-is: a fixed-width HTML page or a wide landscape PDF can still feel cramped on a small screen. The fix is on your side — design responsively or export a portrait-friendly PDF — but the delivery itself never adds an app wall or a login between your work and the person reviewing it.

Update your work without changing the link

Your portfolio is never finished — you ship a new project, win an award, or want to swap a weak piece. Instead of re-uploading and pasting a new URL into every application and bio, you can replace the file behind an existing link and keep the same address. The résumé you sent last month, the QR on the business cards you already printed, the link in your LinkedIn intro — all now point at your latest work automatically. That makes a portfolio link something you set up once and quietly keep current, rather than a dead snapshot from whenever you last job-hunted.

See whether people are actually opening it

Every portfolio link carries a view counter, so you can tell the difference between 'nobody's looking' and 'they looked and passed'. If you sent your link to fifteen companies and the count barely moves, the problem is probably your outreach or where the link sits, not the work itself. On Pro, view analytics break opens down by device and country — useful for spotting when a specific application or a post finally got traction. It's honest, aggregate data: you see that opens happened and roughly from where, not who each individual viewer was.

Keep a client portfolio private when you need to

Sometimes a portfolio piece is under NDA, or you only want a specific studio to see certain client work. On Pro you can password-protect a link and share the password separately, set an expiry date so a link for one application quietly stops working later, or make it view-only to hide the download button. View-only is honest about its limits — it deters casual saving and keeps the emphasis on viewing in-browser, but it can't stop a determined viewer from screenshotting, so treat it as a nudge, not true DRM. For genuinely sensitive work, the password is the real gate.

Frequently asked questions

It depends on your work. A PDF is the most reliable for a case-study deck or a designer's book because it looks identical everywhere and won't reflow. A single image (PNG or JPG) is perfect when one strong piece or a poster-style collage tells the story. A self-contained HTML page is best if you hand-built an interactive portfolio and want to show front-end craft. All three open straight in the browser behind your link.

Yes. You can replace the file behind an existing link and keep the same URL, so the address in your applications, bio, email signature, and any printed QR code all point at your latest work automatically. You only update in one place.

The link opens directly in the viewer's browser with no app or download, which removes the usual friction. How it looks depends on your file: a responsive HTML page or a portrait-friendly PDF reads well on mobile, while a fixed-width page or a very wide landscape PDF can feel cramped. Open your own link on your phone before sending it and export accordingly.

Yes. If your work doesn't fit in one file, bundle several into a bucket — one link (linkinseconds.com/b/your-name) that shows every file in a single clean viewer, so you send one URL instead of a folder of attachments. Free includes one bucket; Pro and Lifetime give you unlimited buckets, up to 500 MB each.

Every link comes with a downloadable QR code. Print it on a business card, a résumé footer, a market-stall sign, or a conference booth, and anyone can scan it to open your portfolio on their phone — no typing a URL. Because you can swap the file behind the link later, the printed QR keeps pointing at your current work.

Yes, on Pro. You can add a password and share it separately, set an expiry date so a link stops working after a while, or make a link view-only to hide the download button. View-only deters casual saving but can't stop screenshots, so for NDA or sensitive client work the password is the real protection.

Yes. Every link has a view counter, and on Pro you get analytics broken down by device and country. It's honest aggregate data — you see that opens happened and roughly where from, which helps you gauge whether your outreach is landing, but it doesn't identify individual viewers.

Your viewer never needs an account, an app, or a download — they just click the link and see your work in the browser. You can create your first portfolio link with no account too (PDF, image, or video up to 10 MB); signing in free with Google lets you keep it, add a second link, and set a custom name. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited links and the privacy controls.

No — links never expire on any plan. A portfolio link you set up while job hunting keeps working indefinitely, so you can leave it in your LinkedIn intro and email signature and simply refresh the file behind it whenever your work changes.
